HI all, got a Half track with a Dragon 75mm Howitzer to tow behind.I want to know what the Ammo Boxes looked like for the Howitzer. Have seen some 'clover leaf' shaped tubes to hold 3 H.E. shells, with cardboard tubes between metal ends.Were there any other storage boxes used, ie wooden boxes, and if so how many would each hold?Maybe our Friends from across 'the pond' can help out. I just want to make some to put in back of the half track.
Look forward to your expert help.
Cheers
Dunc

Re: Ammo Boxes for 75mm Pack Howitzer
You've got the wrong team Tim - the 75mm Pack Howitzer is a US field gun.

Dragon also did advertise an M9 trailer to go with the Pack Howitzer, but I don't think I've ever seen one available. It looks like a steel dustbin on its side, with wheels attached.
